Dell V305 Printer Review

If you're looking for an inexpensive, stripped-down, all-in-one printer, then the Dell V305 printer is just for you. There are not a lot of bells and whistles on this little machine, but it gets the job done. The Dell V305 ink printer can print, copy, and scan using your computer or make quick copies and scans directly.

It's a small-sized printer measuring 7.0" high x 17.7"wide x 12.3" deep, so it will fit just about anywhere. It's easy to setup and the Dell V305 inkjet cartridges are a cinch to replace, as are Brother LC51BK ink tanks. You can produce four-color prints using the black and three-color Dell V305 ink cartridges or upgrade to six-color quality using the optional photo cartridge. You can also print out onto a variety of unusual paper sizes, such as postcards, index cards, Hagaki cards, labels, banners, transparencies, heavyweight paper, glossy paper, and iron-on transfers. Many kinds of ink, such as Canon CLI-221BK ink, can adhere to various types of paper.

This is a very stripped-down, all-in-one printer, so there is no LCD screen for editing photos, but you can print a test sheet first before inserting your expensive photo paper. However, you can still print directly to the printer using the PictBridge connection, memory card slots, or USB port. This printer is compatible with Windows XP/2000/Vista and it also comes in a wireless model, the Dell V305w.

The Dell V305 inkjet is a very inexpensive all-in-one printer that features the convenience of printing, scanning, and copying without all the extras in other models that you might never use anyway. However, the low price is pretty much the best quality of this low-end color printer. If you're just looking for convenience rather than high quality, then this printer is the perfect choice. The ink will last only a quarter of the capacity of HP 45 ink, which is a competitive model on the market.

For the home or small office duties, this printer is an ideal choice for users on a budget. It does the job you need it to do at a reasonable price and is a well suited for those who just need to print, copy, or scan on an occasional basis.
